Easy Art in 1.2.3 : Simple Succulent

Today I’m sharing Easy Art in 1.2.3 : Simple Succulent. I share step by step instructions so you can make your own inexpensive art work because so often finding art work that you love can cost a pretty penny but guess what… it really does not have to cost much at all! Let’s get started.

Lightly draw out your basic cacti/Simple Succulent shape using a pencil. (I highlighted mine in the graphic below so you could see the light pencil lines.)

Load up your brush with black paint and trace your cacti/succulent pencil lines. If you can do this with a single smooth line, it’s best.

Next, added lines to the interior of your cacti/succulent and paint a basic pot. I was going for a very simplified look on this art work, so the less tinkering the better. Then using your two different shades of green, add the flowers.

For a final touch, add your gold foil to your Simple Succulent. Brush on thin lines of metal adhesive glue and allow to dry until a slight tacky feel. Then, apply your gold foil sheets to cover. Brush off any excess gold leaf and enjoy!
